On December 16, 1997, a single Pokemon episode sent 600 kids to the hospital in one night.
The cause: Pikachu's thunder attack. 12 red/blue flashes per second for 6 seconds.
In the days after, thousands more kids reported symptoms. But it wasn't epilepsy. It was mass hysteria.
The episode has never been rebroadcast. Anywhere. Ever.

Does anyone else still snip the plastic rings from six packs with scissors before throwing them away because in 1984 you heard that turtles and fish get their heads stuck in them?
